<h1>GSSAPI Syslog Input Module</h1>
<p><b>Module Name:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; imtcp</b></p>
<p><b>Author: </b>varmojfekoj
&lt;email address here? which?&gt;</p>
<p><b>Description</b>:</p>
<p>Provides the ability to receive syslog messages from the
network protected via Kerberos 5 encryption and authentication. This
module also contains the functionality found in <a href="imtcp.html">imtcp</a>,
which can not be used if imgssapi is used.</p>
<p><b>Configuration Directives</b>:</p>
<ul>
<li>InputGSSServerRun &lt;port&gt;<br>
Starts a GSSAPI server on selected port - note that this runs
independently from the TCP server.</li>
<li>InputGSSServerServiceName &lt;name&gt;<br>
The service name to use for the GSS server.</li>
<li>$InputTCPServerRun &lt;port&gt;<br>
Starts a TCP server on selected port</li>
<li>$InputTCPMaxSessions &lt;number&gt;<br>
Sets the maximum number of sessions supported</li>
</ul>
<b>Caveats/Known Bugs:</b>
<ul>
<li>module always binds to all interfaces</li>
<li>only a single listener can be bound (one each for GSS and
plain TCP)</li>
<li>duplicates <a href="imtcp.html">imtcp</a>
functionality and thus conflicts with it. This will change in the
future. Unfortunately, that also means that&nbsp;your config files
probably&nbsp;need &nbsp;to be changed in the future when that
change happens.</li>
</ul>
<p><b>Sample:</b></p>
<p>This sets up a TCP server on port 514 and a GSSAPI protected
syslog server at port 1514:<br>

needs to be done just once
